MONTREAL — The Montreal Canadiens proved Tuesday night that good things eventually come to those who wait.
After enduring nine straight losses, and being outscored 33-9 in the process, the Canadiens finally solved the Carolina Hurricanes with a 4-0 win at Centre Bell.
“The way we handled their pressure was what I’m most proud of and we frustrated them,” said Montreal's head coach Martin St. Louis. “When teams spend a lot of time in our zone, I feel like we don’t give them all that much. We were really organized tonight and that’s something we focus on a lot. We did a lot of very ordinary things over and over, they aren’t the most fun, but they pay off.”
“When everybody’s on board and plays the way we want to play, we can compete with any team. We were patient and we didn’t try to force anything, we waited for them to get rid of the puck and we scored on our chances.”
